Core Modules

Core material will cover requirements for product and technology development, including ethics and regulatory aspects, technical and commercial skills in medical imaging and diagnostics technologies in advancing 21-st century healthcare in the years to come.

Choosing the Medical Imaging or Medical Diagnostics pathways allows students with an interest in a specific area to further specialise by undertaking two additional subject-specific core modules.

Optional Modules

Optional modules allow the selection of complementary topics of particular interest to the student.

Group Research Project

A collaborative group research project, which parallels the way that diagnostics and imaging experts work in industry, will allow students to integrate their knowledge and understanding in order to solve a problem.

Individual Research Project

Students will also complete an individual research project in their chosen area of specialism.
